While at the local lake for sunset pics. this gull gave me a back lit photo opt.

Might not be the perfect photo opt for some but for my I think they have they have a beauty all their own. :)

I appreciate your comments, thank you.

It is very good for shooting into the sun Tigz. I too like this bird, but then I don't have to clean up their messes on a daily habit.
Well done and I've been meaning to tell you that I like the signature you use.

We've been seeing lots of gulls over our little lake due to the strong NE winds over Lake Michigan - their calls are somewhat eerie but I enjoy watching them and I like the backlit shot.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I agree SAS...back-lighting does have its' own beauty...and you've done a super job on this one.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
